On Supporting His Best Friend Katherine Heigl at the Emmys:
"It was fun. It was such a surprise to be included on that list [myself]. Heigl winning, that was pretty incredible when they called her name."

On Heigl's Gift to Him on His March 26 Birthday:
"She showed up with at my house...with a dog. I had been talking about it for a while. I guess there’s a point, too much talk and not enough action.
So she made the decision. [I named him] Arrow."

On Dating and Life Since Coming Out:
"I feel I’ve learned so much this past year, so yeah that changes you. But as far as the dating, recently Katie and her fiance Josh Kelley and me and her mom went out to dinner and it was reported that it was with me and my new boyfriend. That was really her mom."

On Closeted Hollywood Pressures to Come Out
"Everyone has their own path. You just have to respect that. I don’t know what it's like to be in their shoes. I know a lot of people who make statements but you have to do it when it’s right for you. I don’t think it's right to force that. It’s impossible to know. There’s a lot of soul searching you have to do."
